Your Nest of Dreams has me completely captivated here.

Anything with caffeine!)<br />I'm feeling much better now - thanks! <br /><br />Thanks, Ruby.

Yours are always worth waiting for.<br /><br />And even though I understand about the photographs not showing depth/texture/color as would accurately reflect the subtleties, in the process and what have you, I do think that you pulled it off.<br /><br />I love seeing all of your supplies, including your coffee mug (or do you drink tea?) Sorry to hear that you were unwell, and hopefully you are on the way to a full recovery. Make sure to include lots and lots of TLC for you and your inner child and your muse.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12879541207987895748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939857316909930127.post-11984038460152679162012-07-06T02:36:39.268-07:002012-07-06T02:36:39.268-07:00Thanks, Donna!Thanks, Donna!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674923395134039554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939857316909930127.post-24251235616257254372012-07-06T01:08:00.409-07:002012-07-06T01:08:00.409-07:00Really enjoyed the opportunity to get a glimpse in...Really enjoyed the opportunity to get a glimpse into your process ~ your use of color and texture never fails to impress me!Donna~Q~https://www.blogger.com/profile/15516927570570110567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939857316909930127.post-24728344447804836332012-07-05T07:28:01.922-07:002012-07-05T07:28:01.922-07:00Thanks, Donna.

One of the things which had put me off oils at the beginning was the idea that I needed to use solvents to clean the brushes - but cheap cooking oil and dish soap works, maybe not as quickly, but less toxically. The long drying time can be both a pro and a con - which cold wax helps to speed up, but then you're getting more solvents in the air...Acrylics really are good, these days. The colours are much better than before. I keep meaning to experiment with them more! <br /><br />Thanks, Velma. Sounds like your travels and teaching are going really well!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674923395134039554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939857316909930127.post-37311385440104274692012-07-05T02:36:32.471-07:002012-07-05T02:36:32.471-07:00this is fantastic, thanks.this is fantastic, thanks.Velma Bolyardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12446502295849533888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939857316909930127.post-39933940806212462872012-07-04T18:49:31.174-07:002012-07-04T18:49:31.174-07:00Thanks for sharing all your techniques tips and po...Thanks for sharing all your techniques tips and pointers about cold wax and oils...
